yesterday when we crossed paths
i crossed my heart and promised not to part.
i knew i didn't know myself
but i knew you i hoped that'd be enough.
but i wasn't even half of me
your half can't make me whole.
i'm sorry dear but i can't stay
i guess i'll have to go
i'm learning how to be alone
release control and sit with the unknown
i wish i could fly back to you
define me, make me show me what to do
but the only one who anchors me
is god and god alone
i'm sorry dear but i can't stay
forgive me when i've gone.
someday i'll be a real girl
with organs of my own
wood knocked out strings replaced
i'll be flesh and bone
until that day I hope you find a way
to cut some strings off of your own
And selfishly I'm praying you'll remember me
when you're on your own
i cross my heart we'll meet again
cross paths and comprehend
two halves.
two halves don't always make a whole.
